A Happy Result.

Still Cleveland weather. Right
on the heels of the New York elec-
ton and democratic victory, and on
thanksgiving day, day set apart by
our president for public expression OF
gratitude to the great Ruler of all
nations, comes gentle rain, sweet
and refreshing, generally distributed
throughout our happy land, for
which we gratefully express thanks
for the people of Sharp county with
becoming reverence. May the bless
ings of Heaven continue to be show
cred upon this fair land and God
fearing country.

The votes polled in the recent
New York election furnish a consid-
erable hunk of food for an arithmet-
ical mind, being so divided between
parties and factions. The total vote
cast for secretary of state is 2l4,-
927, of which number the democratic
candidate received lll,lS6; the
republican ticket 5S,963. Majority
for the administration party is 52,-
223. Now comes the side shows for
their shares of the grist: Georges
Union Labor party got S7,477, and
prohibition $3.50. Add these two
hobbies together and they fail to
ride down the democratic majority
by $751;
These figures not only show that
New York is unquestionably demo-
cratic, but the vote Fred Grant got
for secretary of state shows conclu-
siyely that American citizens hardly
ever cast their votes for a corpse.

An Interesting Mystery.

A correspondent of the SHARP COUNTY
RECORD, one of the brightest papers IN
Arkansas, rises to ask an explanation
upon the following interesting mystery.
"If it is fact that the total valuation
of taxable property in the county IN
1887 is $5S, 900 less than it was IN 1855;
and if the list of lands falls l6o.OOO
acres short of last year, we would like
to know where it went. We have had
no earthquakes nor volcanic eruptions to
diminish our territory, but instead, the
last legislature gave us small strip
from good old lizard. Will some one
please explain Y-Arkansas Press.
Our Equalization Board cut the first
array of figures down about one-halt, we
are informed, while the latter discrepan-
cy cannot be fully explained.

The sales of public lands during

The sales of public lands during
the past fiscal year amonnt to 25,-
o5s,O2s acres, which is 1884,
hcres in excess Of last years sales,
and the receipts were sa,247,727
greater. The number of acres re-
stored to the public domain from
unlawful land-grants amounts to the
enormous sum of about 32,0O0,0O0.
These figures alone should recon-
mend the present administration to
the American people, "wherever
dispersed"

Advices from Washington stat

Advices from Washington state
that four territories are preparing to
make earnest endeavors for admis-
sion to the union as states this win
ter. These are Montana, Dakota,
W-shington and New Mexico. The
proposition to divide Dakota into
two states will be revived, but will
doubtless be defeated in the house.
Lower California will also try to get
loose from the big end of that state
and begin business under a new
name and regime. Texas and
Rhode Island yet to hear from.

The SHARP COUNTY RECORD asks if the
Chicago Express is an outspoken republic

union labor guise. The latter description
fits it best; but. in either event, it is sim

or democrat, should lend it aid and en-
courage gement In contest between order
and anarchy, party lines disappear, ant
good citizens stand together for common
defense.

 THE GREAT EDITOR OF THE SOUTH.

THE GREAT EDITOR OF TIRE SOUTH.
 The spesch of Henry " Grady edit or of the Atian,s Coas,stirioa on ''T'he New South," in New York recently has brought that gentleman into national prominence. The Phiisdefptia News gives the toiiowlng sketch Q. his life.
 Grady comes of good stock. His father ras highly cultivated and wealthy planter; his mother southern lady, with the mingled social graces and religious dryotio1, which reachad so high type in the south. The boy was born about tnifty-six years ago in what is called, Cherokee Georgia" During the rebellion his father was killed fight ing gai.antly on the southern side. after having raised so the rank of major. About this time the boy made up his mind that he would have 10 support his mother and sister; so with brother of nearly the same age he set sal boldly on the sea of journalism, launching as his first fraii eraft daily paper ID. Rome that he called he Rome Daily Courier. Ina; place then had about 2,5oo Popu- latioa and was zs poor as Jobs turkey. O. course the boy editor failed. sinking the remnant of his f.lher's fortune.
 But hc feit the throhbings ot the al most incusrbie journalistic fever and so he sought wider field in Atlanta, where he started the Herald O. that venture his friend, Iohn Temple Graves, editor of ,he Florida Herald, says: From that day to th:s the Atlanta Herald has never had superior and hardly ar equa, in Geotgis joarnalistn for bIiilian ~, sparkle and enterprise. IL was marvel of pluck and brightness Like ns great New Fork namesakc, il hae a special engine 10 carry it's huge bundle of papers down the Georgia railroad 10 Agus.z, and was ahead of the present cons,itI,ioa ia every thing excep; mon ey. As t vas, Ets radian, editorials and superb news service told So powerfully upon ,he Georgia people that the Con s;itulion vas hard-pressed. and confess es now that, If the Herald had not failed one week, fhe Constitution would have gone under the next" The collapse of the Herald, however, lei; young Grady still undanrted and hopeful He tried ii again. his neM newsplpe, child being the itizufa CoGri-y Bu, II, too, failsd os success, and ncxt he began writing for the Atlanta Constitution One of bIs first pieces of work 02 tha, paper, which he has made the greatest d4iy plbilca- ton soa.h os Philadelphia. was, If l am not mistaken, an interview with Victor
 Newcomh. oT an article that directly in- trcsted that southern railroad rpagnste- Shotly afterward occurred that mis,eri- ons Iise in Louisville X Nashville railroad stock, and. Ncwcomb having advised Grady of what was about to oc- cur, that brilliant young gentleman -f.:z- f..rk.4 i.4 nicelx--Wtb. ths. money h. purchased one-fourth interest of tue stock of tue Constitution, which inneI he still retains. and which pays him a moathiy dividend of SI, 200. He now owns one of the handsome st residences in the capital of Georgia, and if you should happen down that way and be fortunate enoush 50 become the recipient of his hospitality you would imagine that yoa had been given prop rietary interest in the en,ue state o' Georgla."
